I spent about an hour reviewing the materials on this site. There is a wonderful collection of essays and articles on all aspects of eating disorders. The essays on cultural issues that affect the diagnosis and treatment of these disorders were very well written and very informative. In addition to providing solid information, this site also hosted chats and discussion lines for those in recovery.I think that this site would be a good, down to earth introductory site for those interested in learning more about eating disorders.Technical Remarks: This site was very well laid out with a nice side bar navigational system. The coloring however made it difficult to read some of the options.

This site was a great resource for both individuals with schizophrenia, and for students wishing to learn more about this disease. I really liked that it provided so many links to support groups and discussion circles. I also liked the sections that dealt with obtaining financial support and legal issues.Technical Remarks: This site was set up very simply with straightforward internal links to different areas within the site.

This site was a very well put together clearing house for information on Fetal Alcholol Syndrome. The materials were very comprehensive and included up to date bulletins on new research and therapies. I think this would be a good introductory site for someone interested in this topic.Technical Remarks: This site was very simply laid out with navigational butons located on the side. The labels were not clear for some of the links so I did not know where I was going sometimes, but it was easy to backtrack home.

The site consisted of a front page with several links to Dr. Ozbyrak's writing on aperger's. The information was very well written, very clear and very understandable to anyone from a layperson to a professional therapist. I am not sure that use of this website would enhance a student's learning or a faculty's teaching. It would be a good reference for a paper, but it is extremely specific and does not link to other sites regarding Asperger's or spychology in general. Technical Remarks: The page setup is very basic. Once click takes you to the essay, and one click takes you back home. There is no navigation available within the site, but no reason to navigate either.

I spent about half an hour gooing through the site and then spent another hour reading the subject overview and trying to figure out what was being said. This site is a good link site. It presents access to several journals and several other research facilities. The information is fairly advanced and would not be appropriate for an introductory level class, but would be very usefull for an advanced student looking for research materials or writing articles themselves.Technical Remarks: The site was very easy to navigate. The use of navigation bars at the top is always a nice touch - it helps you keep track of where you are in the site.

This was one of the best sites I have found on child psychology. There was extensive information on childhood disorders ranging from ADD to Downes Syndrome and included information on testing, advocacy, legal aspects, and treatments.I spent about an hour going through this site. The material was very thorough, well written and easy to comprehend. This site would be an ideal resource for many students and faculty members. I expecially appreciated the legal and advocacy section. This was the first time I have seen this subject covered in such a comprehensive fashion.Technical Remarks: This site was very easy to navigate. Moving from section to section was smooth and all of the links functioned as they should.

1. I spent about an hour looking through this website. The site has two extensive on-line classes that I looked through as well as discussion sites and various resources for parents. The quality of the materials presented on this site was outstanding and I found it to be clear, well written and very helpful. I think that this would be a very effective teaching tool as well an important resource for parents. Technical Remarks: The site was very well laid out. The combination of side bars and navigation buttons at the top made it easy to reach all areas within the site.

I spent about half an hour reading the essays and going through the links and advice column. There were no activities, and except for the Q&A, no interactive elements to this site. The content of this website was very sketchy. The essays were a simple regurgitation of the writings of Albert Ellis and of the simpler concepts of REBT therapy. The book suggestions were thinly veiled advertisements for the writings of the Psychologist who hosted the site and the responses to the Q&A worried me.This site was not educational nor significant in any way except as a tool for self promotion. Why it was submitted to an educational website confuses me. I don't see any redeeming value in this site and don't think that it would be an effective tool for teaching. Technical Remarks: This site was laid out in a very straight forward way. All the pages were easily accesible from the home page and the tool bars allowed for quick and easy movement through the site.
